Two woodland caribou in Northern British Columbia having a little spare session in the woods. This was the first time I have ever seen caribou in real life and it was awesome. I love photographing wildlife so much, especially endangered or threatened species.

Beautiful lupin fields at Lakeland Flowers in Abbotsford near Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
About this photo: I missed the tulip fields this year, but we made up for it by visiting the same place to see the beautiful lupin fields. Lakeland Flowers is a flower farm that you can visit (for a small fee) for about 6 months of the year offering different flower fields. In April/May they have the tulip fields, mid-May/June you can visit the lupin field, peony field, lavender field and other meadows. In August there is also a sunflower field. Lakeland Flowers is located in Abbotsford about good 45 minuten drive from the Vancouver area in BC, Canada.
Wow, I was pleasantly surprised as it was so beautiful with so many different colours!I enjoy this just as much as the tulip fields and on the positive side it was not crowded at all and even cheaper than visiting the tulips. There were some peonies blooming, but they may take anoher week or 2 to be in full bloom.

Some information about Lakeland Flowers:
Peter Warmerdam was born in 1927 in Sassenheim Netherlands. At the time, it was the home of the largest tulip bulb producing area in the world. In 1949, Peter arrived in Canada and worked at whatever jobs were available. His first job was working on a farm in Winnipeg. He moved to the West Coast in the early 1950’s spending some time in logging and eventually working full time in farming.
In 1974, Peter and his family purchased land in the Sumas Prairie Flats in Abbotsford where the farm currently stands. Peter chose the Sumas area because the sandy soil made harvesting bulbs easier and the steady winds kept foliar diseases at bay. The ownership in the business eventually transferred to his sons and he became fully retired from working on the farm at 87 years of age.
In its 47 years in Abbotsford, the farm has expanded from a small operation to a company of nearly 100 employees. Today, Peter’s son Nick owns and operates Lakeland Flowers which continues to grow millions of beautiful daffodils, tulips, peonies, and sunflowers each year.
The land they now farm once used to be known as Sumas Lake. From the Glacial Age, it sat in a basin cocooned between the Sumas and Vedder mountains. The 10 000 acre lake would triple in size each spring from water rushing in from the Chilliwack and Vedder River that fed into it. This would ruin crops and make transportation between Chilliwack and cities to the west impossible.
By the 1920’s, engineers drained the lake through the Sumas Lake Canal and into the Fraser River, effectively turning the lake into farmland. The soils from the lakebed are sandy to silty in composition and quite fertile, creating the area into an agricultural hub of the Fraser Valley.

#explorebc - Terra Nova Rural Park in #StevestonBC is such a nice place to visit. There's a vast marshy field stretching to the horizon where you can see Gabriola Island and a bit of Valdes Island. Sunset there is also gorgeous! A well-known local photographer, Clayton Perry, is very familiar with that area.
This one is a portrait pano consisting of 5 shots total using a grad ND filter. Since there was enough light, I shot this handheld with mirror lock-up mode to avoid tiny vibrations. The clouds in this one were so beautiful.
